Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds in the United States recorded a combined $1.223 billion in net outflows during the week of October 5 to October 9, 2026, according to data from SoSoValue. Net outflows mean redemptions outpaced new investment across the funds during the window. Bitcoin funds posted $681 million in withdrawals, bringing a three-week streak of consecutive net inflows to an end, while Ethereum funds shed $542 million over the same period. BlackRock's ETHA accounted for $477 million of the Ethereum outflows, making it the largest single contributor to the week's redemptions.
Bitcoin ETFs End Three-Week Inflow Streak
The latest weekly withdrawals reversed three consecutive weeks of net inflows for Bitcoin spot ETFs. Weekly net-flow tallies, compiled from daily creations and redemptions of fund shares, are widely cited as a gauge of investor demand for these products. SoSoValue's flow chart, covering January 2024 through October 2026, documents repeated shifts between daily inflows and outflows throughout the funds' trading history. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs began trading in January 2024, with Ethereum counterparts following in July of the same year.
In early 2024, Bitcoin climbed from approximately $40,000–$45,000 toward $70,000, a period during which the chart recorded several daily inflow spikes exceeding $1 billion. Midyear withdrawals, however, coincided with prices retreating toward the $50,000–$60,000 range. Buying resumed late in 2024, with one inflow spike approaching $1.35 billion as Bitcoin moved toward $100,000. Daily flows remained uneven through 2025, with some withdrawal days approaching $1 billion.
BlackRock's ETHA Leads Ethereum ETF Outflows
Ethereum spot ETF recorded $542 million in weekly net outflows, with BlackRock's ETHA responsible for $477 million, roughly 88% of the Ethereum total. The Ethereum flow chart, updated October 9, also shows a single-day ETHA outflow of approximately 22,440 ETH.
Other listed funds include ETHE, ETH, ETHB, ETHW, FETH, ETHV, EZET, TETH and QETH, although their individual flows are not clearly distinguishable at the chart's displayed scale. The cumulative-flow view shows inflow spikes reaching approximately 200,000–230,000 ETH around mid-2025, while some outflow periods approached 100,000–130,000 ETH, reflecting alternating waves of fund activity.
Bitcoin and Ethereum Prices Track Uneven Flows
Bitcoin's price chart shows the asset rising toward $100,000–$110,000 during parts of 2025 before falling toward $80,000 and lower. In 2026, BTC approached the $60,000–$70,000 range before recovering toward $90,000–$100,000.
Ethereum climbed toward $4,600–$4,800 in August and September 2025 before declining toward $1,600–$1,800 around July 2026. By the end of the chart, ETH had recovered to approximately $2,000–$2,100.
Both charts show alternating inflows and outflows alongside price fluctuations across the roughly two-and-a-half-year period. However, the figures alone do not establish that ETF withdrawals caused either cryptocurrency's price movements, and the flow data cover only the U.S. ETF segment of each market. Whether this week's redemptions extended into the following week will be visible in SoSoValue's next weekly update.
